USC Summer Undergraduate Orientation – Welcome Trojans
Weeks of May 30, June 6, June 13 and June 20
All new students must register for the summer Welcome Trojans orientation program to ensure successful transition to USC and to register for your fall classes. Welcome Trojans will include online academic advisement and registration and an optional in-person experience on campus. If a student cannot attend an on-campus event, they may select Welcome Trojans Online. Welcome Trojans Online will include a virtual Zoom session where students will get a chance to meet fellow Trojans and learn more about student life and the USC community.
In order to meet with an advisor and register for fall courses, students must sign up for a Welcome Trojans orientation week. Visit the Welcome Trojans orientation website for instructions on how to reserve your spot for the Welcome Trojans orientation program. Advisors will contact students at their USC email address in the days leading up to the course registration session with details regarding Thornton’s academic expectation presentation and signing up for a mandatory advisement meeting.
